Greeleyites have endeavored to turn
the Genual) votes of the country
against Gen. Grant, by oirculittliig
false reports hi reference toGrant's
ifltidncl in the German-French war.
They have endeavored to make it ap

of Prince Bismarck on Mil subject,

"We see with regret tliat some pol
iticians and journals in the United
States are so unscrupulous as to excite
the derma n voter In the Republic of
the I'nited States against Oeneral
Grant on account of his deportment in
the German French war. W e have
declared very often aud repeat it yet :
The German Government lias taken
not the lest umbrage at the conduct
of General Grant toward our country.
On the contrary, General Grant has

proofs of hh true sympathy with our

American people are too intelligent in

"Across the Clinnm."
A great deal is said by the Oreeley
ites alxwt "shaking hands across the
bloody chasm." The following ex
tract from the Quitman (fia.) llrriwr,
will show bow highly thai proposition
is viewed from a Southern standpoint.
Thai journal doesn't seem inclined to
"shake."' Here it is :
The atrocities of the Northern so!
ilierv are still too fresh In our memory i
the 'war on our hearts are not yet
erased; the names Cbiekiimauga and
Klmira still suffuse the eyes with tears
and the heart with terrible thought
of vengeance. Ah! it 'h ton soon t,
make light ot the four years struggle for
lilierty. Widows have not yet ceased
to iamentthe loss of husbands ; mother
still cherish the memory of departed
sons: brothers and sisters still remem-l-r
idoli.ed fathers and brothers. The
reminders of war's prim landmarks of
a venal host lire not erased the black
ened ruins made by Incendiary and
hireling armies are altogether too fresh
in the minds of Southern men to ex
pect from them even political Indorse
ment of all the atrocious acts of a van
dal host. When we so debase our
manhood when we so outrage all the
noblerleeliiigs of humanity as to stand
over the graves of our Confederate
deatl. and in the language of the ninth
resolution of the Cincinnati-Baltimore
platform, exclaim, "We remember
with gratitude the heroism and sacri
fices olthe soldiers ol the Xorlli." may
our tongue cleave to the roof of onr
mouth.' and may Cod's thunderbolt'
lay us lifeless over tlw sacred mound
wo thus dishonor !
To the Interrogatory, "Is the De

fenrfd responds ! "We answer no.
It is merely resting on Its oars. Four
years after the election in November
it will rise in the full majesty of its
power, to once more place its principle-
to successful triumph throughout
the country." Does that indicate ti nt
the Democrats have gone oyer to Re
publicanism, as Greeley & Co. have
asserted ?
" it is hard for an empty bag to
Stand upright." is a maxim, true as it
is old. The Greeleylte patty, being

consistent principles cant straighten
up in a manly way at all. The people
have no use for such emptiness and
weakness.
The Greeley! tea have been trying to
prove that Henry Wilson was a Know
Nothing, but have most signally fail
oil ; but suppose lie had been, we
doubt very much whether he could
have said anything in that relation
more offensive than the following,
which Mr. Greeley wrote in the JVfft
itnein 1868:
"We do business In a city govern
erment by carpet-baggers only just
over from Cork, Limeric and Sauer
Kra in ci it ha I. The difference between
our carpet-baggers from Europe and
those with which tlic rebefllous
Hamptons are afflicted, is that ours
are generally as deficient in men
tal and inorai cultivation as in proper
ty. We believe most of the Southern
wirpeMiaggirs have at least made the
acquaintance ol the school-master."

The Tribunal of Arbitration at Gen
eva lias at length terminated its labors.
A majority of four VolcC out of the
five constituting the Tribunal, has
awarded to the United States a sum of
fifteen inUBou five hundred thousand
dollars in gold, as indemnity to lie
aid by Great Britain for the use of
the American Government for satisfac
tion of all claims referred to them. In
Washington thedeclsloii of the Tri'm
nnl was received veryqnletly Inofficial
circles. Attorney Genera) Williams
says the award covers fully all that
American members expected could he
awarded, while the sum Is short of
what the English mejnhers conceded
might be due under the declaration of
Karl Russell as set forth In a corres
pondence between Mr. Adams and the
British premier. Condon Journals ic
joice at the conclusion ot the contro
versy, and express hopes that the foun
dation is laid for a permanentGovern
ment understanding between the two
nations. Well may the people of the
two nations congratulate themselves
on so wise and amicable an adjust
ment of this vexed question. Well
may the jieople of the I 'nited States
continue to trtv-t and honor an Ad
ministration, whose policy has
restored harmony and prosperity at
home, and preserved peace with all
mankind. President Grant, by his po
litical virtue and sagacity, not only
commands the confidence and esteem
Of the treat fliass ot his fellow citizens
at home, but potentates abroad hold
him in profound tv.-pect and admira
tion. The following estimate of Greeley
from the pen of Mr. li. H. Dana. .Jr.,
is so true to the life, that a way-fiirlng-man,
though a fool, would scarcely
mistake for whom it was Intended,
though his name were not given.
Here it is:
"lie seems to me to be a visionary
without faith, a Radical without root,
an extremist without persistency, and
IV strife-maker without courage, lie
Is genarally admitted to be vain, im
practical, loquacious, open to flattery,
easily Intimidated, easily deceived as

garded bis hat and his troti-crsas
strong arguments for or against him.
there is no reason why we should shut
on- eyes to the fact that he is whim
sical, affected, IkniHsIi and profane."

Here Is a Greeley speech that was
delivered at Davenport, Iowa, sifter
the news came that the Liberals had
carried North Carolina, before the
mistake was discovered. It shows the
estimate ml upon Greejey'a lKisition
by ex-rebels :

the result.
"Mercy," Is "kindness shown to the

Grceleyites now would be appropriate,
for they aive every indication of being
"miserable."
Tlie story that Senator Sehurz's price
for villltylug Grant 1 $00 per night
does the Senator injustice. His price
U $260 per night; -2u0 is what he
used to charge for talking on the Re

asked is for wear and tear of conscience.
